Terms of Service

1. Acceptance of These Terms

By creating an account, accessing, or using Octolyze (the “Service”), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service (the “Terms”) and by our Privacy Policy. If you are using the Service on behalf of an organization, you represent that you have authority to bind that organization, and “you” refers to both you and that organization.

If you do not agree to these Terms, do not use the Service.

2. Definitions

• “Octolyze”, “we”, “us” — the operator of the Service (contact: [email protected]).
• “Account” — your registered access to the Service.
• “Target Site” — any website you submit to be crawled or audited.
• “Report Member” — a client account you provision to view a report you share.
• “Content” — data you submit, generate, or that the Service collects on your instruction (including crawl results and reports).

3. Eligibility & Accounts

You must be at least 18 years old and able to form a binding contract. You agree to provide accurate information and to keep it up to date. You are responsible for safeguarding your credentials and for all activity under your Account. Notify us promptly of any unauthorized use.

New accounts may require verification or approval before activation. We may refuse, suspend, or close accounts at our discretion where these Terms are breached.

4. The Service

Octolyze crawls Target Sites and produces technical SEO diagnostics, a health score, prioritized issues, and shareable reports. The Service is provided through our engines, including OctoScore™, TentaCrawl™, ImpactRank™, DeepSignal™, and InkForge™. Features, limits, and engines may evolve over time.

The Service provides informational analysis. It does not guarantee any specific search ranking, traffic, indexing, or business outcome.

5. Acceptable Use & Crawling Rules

You agree not to, and not to permit anyone to:

• Submit a Target Site you do not own or have explicit permission to crawl;
• Use the Service to overload, disrupt, or gain unauthorized access to any site or system;
• Circumvent robots directives, rate limits, authentication, or access controls in a manner you are not authorized to;
• Use the Service for unlawful, infringing, deceptive, or harmful purposes, or to process others’ personal data unlawfully;
• Reverse engineer, resell, or replicate the Service except as expressly permitted;
• Interfere with the Service’s operation, security, or other users; or exceed your plan’s limits through abuse or automation.

Our crawler is designed to respect robots.txt and reasonable rate limits by default; you remain responsible for how you configure and use it.

7. Client Accounts & Shared Reports

The Service lets you share reports via public links or by provisioning Report Member accounts for your clients. If you invite or create accounts for others, you confirm you have the right to do so and to share the underlying data with them. You are responsible for the accounts you provision and for communicating any credentials securely. Report Members must also comply with these Terms.

11. Availability, Changes & Beta

We aim for high availability but do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free operation. We may modify, suspend, or discontinue features at any time. Features labeled beta, preview, or early access are provided “as is,” may change or be removed, and may be less reliable.

6. Plans, Billing & Refunds

Paid plans (e.g., Basic, Starter, Pro, Agency) are billed in advance on a monthly or annual basis through our payment processor. By subscribing, you authorize recurring charges until you cancel.

• Renewal: subscriptions renew automatically for the same term unless cancelled before the renewal date.
• Cancellation: you may cancel at any time; access continues until the end of the current paid period.
• Refunds: payments are made in advance and are non-refundable, including for partial periods and unused quota — with one exception: if you have not used the Service at all, you may request a full refund within 7 days of your purchase. “Used” means running any crawl or generating any report. This does not limit any non-waivable rights you have under applicable consumer law.
• Changes: we may change prices or plan features with reasonable prior notice; changes apply from your next renewal.
• Taxes: prices are in USD and are tax-inclusive — no additional tax is added at checkout.

8. Your Data & Content

As between you and us, you retain ownership of your Content. You grant Octolyze a worldwide, non-exclusive license to host, process, and display your Content solely to operate, secure, and improve the Service and to provide it to you and the people you share it with.

You are responsible for the legality of the Content and Target Sites you submit. We handle personal data as described in our Privacy Policy.

9. Intellectual Property

The Service, including its software, engines, scoring methodology, design, logos, and the names Octolyze, OctoScore™, TentaCrawl™, ImpactRank™, DeepSignal™, and InkForge™, is owned by us and protected by intellectual property laws. Except for the rights expressly granted to you to use the Service, no rights are transferred. You may not use our marks without prior written permission.

10. Third-Party Sites & Services

The Service crawls third-party websites and may integrate third-party services (e.g., hosting, payments, email). We are not responsible for third-party content, availability, or practices. Your use of a Target Site or third-party service is at your own risk and subject to that party’s terms.

12. Disclaimers

To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Service is provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, or statutory, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, or that audit results are accurate, complete, or will improve any ranking or outcome. You are responsible for decisions made based on the Service.

13. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Octolyze and its suppliers will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or any loss of profits, revenue, data, or goodwill. Our total aggregate liability arising out of or related to the Service will not exceed the greater of (a) the amounts you paid to us in the twelve (12) months before the event giving rise to the claim, or (b) USD 100.

14. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Octolyze from any claims, damages, liabilities, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising from your Content, your use of the Service, your Target Sites, or your breach of these Terms or of any law or third-party right.

15. Suspension & Termination

You may stop using the Service and close your Account at any time. We may suspend or terminate your access if you breach these Terms, create risk or legal exposure, or fail to pay. On termination, your right to use the Service ends. We may delete your Content after a reasonable period, subject to legal retention obligations. Sections that by their nature should survive termination will survive.

16. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. If we make material changes, we will provide reasonable notice (e.g., by email or in-app). Your continued use of the Service after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.

17. Governing Law & Disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of Türkiye, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. The courts and enforcement offices of Samsun, Türkiye, will have exclusive jurisdiction, unless mandatory consumer-protection law grants you the right to bring proceedings elsewhere.
